WORKING PRINCIPLE
Compression therapy using compressed air is a therapeutic technique used in medical equipment that includes an air pump and inflatable cuffs
(gloves, boots, jacket, sleeves). During application, an inflatable cuff envelops the limb to be treated. The cuff is connected to the pump via several
pressure pipes. When the pump is activated, it fills the cuff's air chambers, in order to exert pressure on the tissues in the limb, thereby displacing
liquids such as blood and lymph from the pressurized area. A short time later, the pressure is reduced, allowing increased blood flow back to the
limb.
